Maduro cere anularea procesului din New York, invocând imunitatea

Nicolás Maduro has requested a New York court to dismiss drug trafficking charges, citing sovereign immunity as a recognized head of state. His wife, Cilia Flores, filed a similar request. The judge has not yet ruled, with a hearing set for November 17. If the request is denied, the trial is scheduled for June 1, 2027. Maduro and Flores were arrested in January and face serious drug-related charges, which they deny. The case raises questions about the application of international law in U.S. courts regarding the immunity of sitting heads of state.
